Taken for a ride?


Some weeks ago I was supposed to check that our house contents insurance covered the bikes while being carried on the motorcaravan. At the eleventh hour, I finally found time to look into it yesterday. And what a minefield that turned out to be. In order to meet the conditions of the house insurance policy, the bikes have to be secured to a fixed object (motorcaravan not accepted as such!) so I then checked what the motorcaravan insurance had to offer on the subject. Pedal cycles specifically excluded! Thanks, very helpful. The only option seemed to be to get specific cycle insurance. So having found a suitable company I then had to go to buy the “Sold Secure silver-rated” locks in order to comply. We'd better use the bikes plenty after all that!
